Chapter 1154

作者: Dreamy Fire
The man said, "Flip the last card. No matter what it is, you'll get at least 500 dollars. If you refuse, I'm giving you a bad review. Do it right now."

Since Felix had already fully committed to his food delivery role, he knew just how devastating a bad review could be. There was no choice—he had to play along. He said, "Alright."

The hotel suite was filled with six people gathered around a poker table, playing Hold'em. Felix was not an expert but knew enough to understand what was happening.

Four community cards had already been revealed—A, A, K, K—and the young man who pulled Felix in was demanding that he flip the final card. Judging by the stacks of poker chips on the table, this was no small bet. Why they were letting a delivery guy reveal the last card was anyone's guess.

Felix flipped over the final community card with everyone watching—another Ace.

The young man burst into laughter, shouting, "Four of a kind! I got four Aces!"

He slammed his cards onto the table, his exc

    Felix knew he was not seeing things. The woman knocking on the door was definitely Donna. But considering the Webster family's status in Notura City, why would she have to be in a place like this? Moreover, why would she be meeting with five other people? It made no sense.Questions aside, the moment five people matching the target's age and gender range had gathered, Felix knew it was time to act.Rushing from the surveillance room to a spot just outside Room 303, he immediately activated his Grandmaster Realm's domain. Within this field, he could sense the presence of every living being inside.Malevolent Phantoms had a fixed pattern—they could only consume a person's soul after assuming their form and making physical contact. That meant the Phantom had to be inside the room at some point.Even though Malevolent Phantoms could suppress their energy, they still could not escape the detection of his domain, which he had tested it before.All he needed now was the final person to

    "Where's Welson?" Felix asked."He was taken away by the Law Enforcement Team. I heard they came straight from headquarters, so I couldn't do anything."Last night, Felix had confirmed that everything seemed fine. Nonetheless, he still played it safe and had Yadiel assign another person to monitor the security room. Meanwhile, Welson stayed in the room next to 303. His job was to report immediately if anything suspicious happened. Yet, something still went wrong."I see," Felix said.Arriving at a base on the outskirts of Notura City, Felix presented his Dragon Knight ID. Moments later, someone rushed over."Greetings, Dragon Knight. I'm Harith Labelle, under the command of Lord Cairo."Felix nodded and walked inside. "Take me to the person from Room 302 first.""Yes, sir!"As one of Cairo's men, Harith knew exactly what Felix was in charge of in Notura City. There was no need for further explanation.Inside a room, Welson stood up in shock the moment he saw Felix. He was te

    "How did you figure it out?" Felix asked.He quickly calmed himself. That A-tier Malevolent Phantom had killed so many people without leaving a single trace. Could Harith have uncovered something so easily?If it were true, Milo would probably die from sheer frustration.Harith pulled out his phone to play a surveillance clip. He explained, "This is a suspicious individual we spotted last night. If we start with him, we'll definitely find the key to this case."However, the moment Felix glanced at the footage, his expression turned strange. The suspicious individual in question was none other than he himself, disguised as a rugged man."You don't need to investigate that man. That person is me," he said.Harith was stunned. Fortunately, as a martial artist himself, he knew that disguising himself was an easy feat for Felix. Hence, he didn't question it."My lord, the interrogation of Donna is complete. Per your instructions, we haven't let her go yet. However, we haven't found a

    There was no doubt that Donna was innocent. The surveillance footage clearly tracked her movements from the hotel to her home without any irregularities.Perhaps because Felix had helped her family, she naturally felt more at ease with him than with the others here. Forcing herself to stay calm, she started thinking carefully.About ten minutes passed before her expression suddenly changed. "Wait! I just remembered something! Felix, can you get my phone back?""No problem."Once the phone was brought over, Donna, still wearing plastic gloves, immediately turned it on. She opened a WhatsApp group chat."Look, Felix. This is our group chat for the murder mystery game. I started inviting everyone at 2:00 pm yesterday."As her fingers moved across the screen, Felix observed every detail. The chat clearly showed the time and location of the meeting, along with everyone's confirmations."See this message? It was sent by one of us at 3:10 pm."Felix frowned. There didn't seem to be an

    At this point, there was no way Donna hadn't figured out what Felix was implying. Her mouth dropped open in shock."Oh, my God! Are you saying it's my twin sister?"Felix's expression was just as intense. "That's right. She looks exactly like you. I've seen her with my own eyes. Facial recognition technology isn't advanced enough to tell the difference. Her face could definitely unlock your phone."Without wasting a second, Felix instructed Donna to stay put and immediately rushed out."These Malevolent Phantoms are too cunning."The Malevolent Phantom must have somehow found out about her twin sister and used it to their advantage. Perhaps the Malevolent Phantom had used some other method to threaten the Webster family to secure a safe identity.Felix finally understood that Helena and Tony couldn't have left behind a foolproof strategy for every possible scenario. Learning about the Malevolent Phantoms would have to be a slow and meticulous process.Initially, he thought a Mal

    "I don't see a trace of sadness in your eyes," Felix said.The very first sentence made Zayden visibly uneasy. He quickly explained, "I'm the head of this family. If I break down in tears, what will happen to everyone else? We finally found our long-lost daughter, only to be separated again by life and death. I don't even know how to describe this feeling."Felix remained expressionless."Just be honest with me. We've gathered enough information to confirm that you never had a twin daughter. If you tell the truth now, Donna can return home safely. Otherwise, I can't guarantee anything."After speaking with Donna earlier, Felix had instructed Harith to investigate the Webster family. There was no record of Donna ever having a twin sister.After a long silence, Zayden finally said, "Alright. You're the legendary healer and a representative of the headquarters. I trust you'll handle things fairly."You're right. My daughter is dead, and I'm not sad at all. In fact, I feel relieved

    In the end, Felix called Eunice again to postpone his dinner plans with Donna. Even though the person who died in the Webster family wasn't important, a few of Donna's friends from the murder mystery group had lost their lives for real. There was no way she wouldn't be devastated.The reason Felix stayed behind was a lingering suspicion. It was nothing concrete—just a hunch. But it was enough to make him want to stay in Notura City for a few more days.With nothing better to do, he decided to check out the location on the note he had been handed earlier. It led him to an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city."Are you sure you don't want me to bring a few more guys, Mr. Zeller?"The one speaking was Yadiel. Felix had called him over, too. Since they didn't know who was behind this, having Yadiel around could make things a lot easier."What are you afraid of with me around?" Felix asked.Yadiel looked embarrassed. He recalled his destroyed G-Wagon and quickly waved his ha

    Seeing that Horace had finally calmed down, the middle-aged man standing nearby spoke up, "Mr. Sawyer, if you really can't let this go, there is a way to handle it."Horace shot him a dark look. "What way? My family has no ties with Yadiel. If things really escalate, he won't hold back. And if my father finds out that I got into a conflict with Yadiel over a woman, he'll kill me."Just from Yadiel's phone call, Horace could easily guess that Eunice had been putting on an act all along. Yadiel had business dealings with the Jamison family. That had to be the reason Felix escaped so easily."Damn it! He's just a food delivery guy. How dare he think he can land a woman like that?"He couldn't wrap his head around it. How was he any worse than Felix? The only explanation was that Eunice had some particular tastes that she had been hiding all this time."Mr. Sawyer, have you forgotten? Your father has Black Dog under his command, and he said you were allowed to use them once."Horace

    The guide said, "This is where the selected contestants rest. The yard is huge and has everything you need. As long as you don't leave this yard, you're free to move around. I'll bring you to your room now."The yard looked huge, with fixtures of bridges and flowing rivers. Felix even passed by a fake mountain. It was large enough for hundreds of people to climb, standing thousands of feet tall and looked quite majestically.No one on Earth or Aquamarinus could have built such a luxurious residence. Felix could even see a bar and massage parlor, showing how indispensable technology was in the universe. His room was luxurious, around 2000 square feet, and was decorated with traditional but modern touches. "This is your room. I'll take my leave now, goodbye." The young man left with a bow. Felix turned around and stood on the patio. Outside his room was a large lake, with even fish swimming inside."A new neighbor? Did you just arrive today?" The sudden voice came from the patio

    Felix arrived at the location of one of Nine Flames, where the guards instantly collapsed, their eyes rolling back as they fainted.By now, darkness had arrived. He walked forward without any hesitation, his right hand touching the flame.There was no need for any special tools. The flame simply vanished, and only Felix knew that it was absorbed in an instant by his Starmark.With the disappearance of the flames, people in many places immediately dropped to their knees.The light that should have lasted throughout the night vanished, and the darkness of Desolated Lands descended almost instantly. Every light went out in an instant.Screams echoed everywhere, and panic spread like wildfire. Even though their loved ones were close by, they couldn't see them with their eyes and could only communicate through voice.Scenes like this were unfolding in many places, even in Cloud City."It's really started," Eira said. She was in Cloud City. Although Luigi was standing on her left, h

    Despite Thiago's murderous glare and overwhelming killing intent, Felix wasn't scared. In fact, it made him smile.Due to the unique trait of the Dragon Rebirth, his opponent had to harbor a true desire to kill him in order for Felix to grow stronger. Otherwise, it would all be meaningless. At least so far, everything was unfolding just as he expected.Meanwhile, Holt was silently praying like crazy as he lay on the ground. The battle had already begun, and his companion had understood his message. This was their only shot, however slim, at killing Felix.As time passed and the afternoon crept past 3:00 pm, his companion started to falter. His attacks were growing sluggish. He hadn't been injured, but he was clearly on the defensive now.Seeing this, Felix completely lost interest. Once his opponent lost the will to kill him, the Dragon Rebirth would no longer grow.Still, the battle wasn't for nothing. He'd made solid progress and was a little closer to becoming a Celestial Realm

    Felix had clearly found Holt's weak spot. These guys were so desperate to extend their lives that they turned the entire Aquamarinus into a breeding ground. Obviously, they were terrified of death. As long as there was even the slightest chance of survival, they'd take it.And sure enough, Holt immediately agreed. He pulled out some kind of device and flew off, clearly contacting his comrades."But even if I agreed," Holt said, "the three of us split up and searched in different directions. Even if they rush over, they won't make it until tomorrow."The fear in his eyes was obvious, so much so that Felix couldn't help but laugh."How interesting," Felix said. "You made a deal with the Ant Queen, right? Couldn't she at least give you something to help you move freely through Desolated Lands at night?"Holt shot him a bitter smile. "The Ant Queen's children—the soldier ants—are born hunters. That instinct can't be erased. And honestly, we've never needed to go out at night anyway."

    Lumen flew out and quickly returned. Felix's expression eased completely, and with a step, he vanished from where he stood."Chasing me was fun last time, huh? Did you think it'd go the same this time?" he asked.When he reappeared, someone was already lying on the ground about ten yards ahead. It was a figure fully shrouded in a gray robe, a man named Holt Bovington.That was Felix holding back. Otherwise, Lumen's previous strike could've shattered Holt's soul on the spot."Felix Zeller? It really is you!" Holt's voice was full of shock. Whatever he'd planned to do was already too late. His soul had taken a devastating blow, and he no longer had the strength to fight."Yeah, it's me. Just like I suspected, you people really aren't all that strong when it comes to soul power."Felix had spared his life because he wanted answers."If you answer a few questions honestly, I'll let you live. Even with your soul badly damaged, I assume someone who knows about Nine Flames and Desolate

    Three months later, deep within a mountain on Aquamarinus, a meeting was taking place. Who would've imagined palace-like structures hidden within the mountain itself?In one of the chambers, a sky-blue dome adorned the ceiling. Beneath it, three figures in gray robes sat cross-legged, their bodies cloaked in shadow. Their faces were completely obscured."I went to see the Ant Queen yesterday. There's definitely something wrong.""Enough with the vague talk. Be specific.""In just three months, the Ant Queen has lost millions of her children. Do you even understand what that means?"The atmosphere shifted as all three took a sharp breath. A long silence followed before one finally spoke, "Perhaps our earlier theory is right. Is someone hunting soldier ants in Desolated Lands at night?""It has to be. How else do you explain millions of casualties? At this rate, we're down to just a million soldier ants across the entire planet. If this keeps up, they'll be wiped out in a month. An

    "I didn't expect you to be a doctor, too. Thanks," Myles said, but then suddenly froze. His mind started racing.Wait a minute! He took down a tiger of True Blood Realm. On top of that, he was extremely skilled in medicine. That could only mean…"You figured out who I am?" Felix asked with a smile, trying to put Myles at ease. Despite that, Myles couldn't hide his fear. "You're Felix Zeller?""That's right. Judging by your reaction, I take it I've become a traitor to The Recovery Association? Or maybe some kind of unforgivable villain?"The air grew a bit awkward, and Myles shot him a strained smile."Not exactly… It's just that you took down the Flame Monarch. That's kind of hard to wrap my head around."His expression shifted again."Actually, everyone's still pretty confused. When we woke up this morning, every city, town, and even the smallest villages received a message. Five days from now, the Flame Monarch is holding a Flame Ceremony."Felix paused, frowning. "What's t

    With Lumen and Indigo attacking and the Infinite Shield defending, Felix held his ground. Occasionally, he cast minor spells that barely consumed any soul power. Even as the monsters surged toward him like a tidal wave, not one of them could so much as scratch him.Feeling the steady stream of energy flooding into him, Felix grinned. If things kept going like this, there was a high chance he'd break through to the next major soul realm—Soul Overlord Realm.If he could level up again during the elimination rounds, his odds of winning the whole thing would increase significantly. Especially since Soul Overlord Realm required soul enhancement, it was a whole different league compared to Aetherium Realm.Once he hit Soul Overlord Realm, he was confident he'd be able to go toe-to-toe in a soul battle with the powerful figure who had chased him during dusk.That guy didn't dare appear in Desolated Lands at night, which likely meant his soul wasn't strong. In that case, Felix might actual

    The sun had already begun to set. After fleeing in a panic, Felix had no idea if there was even a single place ahead that could shield him from the coming darkness.A few minutes later, the presence chasing him within his domain disappeared. Logically, the pursuer should've caught up in less than ten minutes, but they gave up. Still, Felix didn't relax for a second. The darkness was about to fall, and that could only mean two things. Either the pursuer wasn't confident they could survive the desolate night themselves, or they assumed there was no flame nearby and Felix was as good as dead.Either way, this was the most dangerous moment yet.After sprinting several more miles, Felix finally stopped. All around him stretched a barren wasteland with no end in sight. Even though he had memorized maps to identify different areas, they were useless now. As darkness swallowed the land, all reference points vanished."Damn it! I guess I'll have to see for myself what the hell comes out i
